DFCC Bank PLC has been recognised among Sri Lanka’s Top 10 Mom-Inclusive Workplaces at the Mom Leaders Conference 2026, organised by Parenthood Global, highlighting the Bank’s continued commitment to building a workplace that supports working mothers to grow, lead, and succeed.
The recognition reflects DFCC Bank’s ongoing efforts to foster an inclusive and supportive work environment that enables women to balance professional development with family responsibilities. It also reinforces the Bank’s broader focus on people-centric policies, wellbeing, and equal opportunity as core elements of its organisational culture.
As workplace expectations continue to evolve, support for working parents has become an important indicator of inclusive employment practices. DFCC Bank noted that this recognition reflects the environment it continues to strengthen, where employees are empowered to contribute meaningfully while being supported through different stages of life and career.
Chief Human Resources Officer of DFCC Bank, Paduma Subasinghe, said that an inclusive workplace is built through consistent action rather than policy alone. He added that supporting working mothers is central to building a stronger organisation, as it enables employees to grow professionally while managing personal responsibilities with greater confidence and purpose.
DFCC Bank also recognised several of its employees at the conference as inspiring mom leaders for their dedication, resilience, and contributions. The honourees included Nipuni Heiyanthuduwa, Nivirthika Joseph, Venushka Bandaranayake, Sinthuja Sivarajah, Nishadhi Jayasekara, Malindi Dharmawardana, Thilinika Hettiarachchi, Inoka Mutthusamy, Sherine Priyona, and Nilushika Chathurangani.
Their recognition highlights the contributions of women across DFCC Bank while balancing professional and family responsibilities, reinforcing the importance of workplaces that value talent, leadership, and commitment beyond traditional performance metrics.
DFCC Bank’s people strategy continues to focus on building a culture where employees feel valued, supported, and empowered, with an emphasis on inclusion, wellbeing, professional development, and equal opportunity.
